Interview
I applied online and they called me about 3 days later for a group interview. There were about 5 other girls there. The hiring manager asked us all basic questions such as "Do you have any experience in retail?" and "Describe an experience in which you had to overcome deal with a difficult customer." We also had to pick out an outfit and try to sell it.

Interview
After basic question and answers....manager trying to see if your personality fits the brand, they ask you to put together an outfit using a key piece from the current line. I really enjoyed it, but it makes some people nervous.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Gap (New York, NY) in Jun 2012
Interview
I applied online via gap.com on a Friday, they called me the next day and asked if I could come in for a interview the following Thursday. The girl who called me was very nice and actually gave me advice like come in dressed business casual and to smile. I went in and was a bit nervous since this was my first retail job interview. I met with the hiring manager and she was very nice and easy to speak to. She just asked about my previous work experience, what customer service meant to me, and if I felt comfortable selling gap cards. Once I answered these questions she asked about my availability and said that they needed to do a background check and once I passed she would contact me and schedule me for orientation. The interview was literally five minutes and went by fast and was very easy. She contacted me the very next day to let me know I passed and that orientation was the next week.
